No Grape was hung on the door of
the Beecher residence, the distin-
guiShed and broad-minded divine
having always objected to the use OF
the gloomy drapery in the presence
of death. Instead of Grape, mag.
nificent wreath OF flowers hung from
the west side of the doorway at the
top of the stoop, composed of white
and red roses and lilies of the valley
and tied up with white satin. We
can conceive Of nothing more sense
less and affected than the habit. al
most universal, of draSing the per.
son and SURF Il dings, where death
has occurred, with forbiddiug black,
as though there were no CLEAN OF
hope for the departed, and the
thought of the future life was dark
repulsive and rayless. Then the
mourning periOd-a year we believe
is about the average time-during
which sombre garments must envel
ope the form and trailing wells adyer
tIse the measured grief ofthe wearer
This, then, is followd by second
mourning for stated time, and then
the emblems of normal life and ga
iety are donned, indicating that the
bruised heart has been healed, BY
stages, and the shadow has been
completely swept away. There is
no sense and no sincerity in this
1t is pretence-affected display and
transparent hypocrisy. 1t is really
more sad to live than to die, if the
matter is seriously considered. If &
person lives right-and all tomb
stones say the departed have done
so-death is not the gateway tt
gloom and misery, and there should
4 be no habiiamentS worn to indicate
that it is. A life of good deeds should
cheer the dying bed, and perfume
the grave with the aroma oflove anG
purity and the sweet incense of eter
nal hope. It's mistaken notion O.

RUN BY MONEY.

"You ought to have heard the auc-
tioneer, as he sold his pews," said a
leading member of the church to the
pastor. ale said, Come, bid up
this thing is run by money"
The words which seemed so anus
ing to the church official went like an
arrow to the heart of the preacher.
He thought of his neighbor, the auc-
tioneer, whom he had long been try
ing to reach and win by the power
of the gospel, and now to hear that
he had publicly said that the church
Was run by money, was too much for
him, even though the pews had sold
for higher rates than ever before.
And though willing to preach to the
people, he from that time utterly de-
clined to be hired by them, or to en-
ter into any arrangement that would
admit of the impression that his
preaching of the gospel was a matter
to be settled by the payment of mon
ey. And from that time to this
through evil and good report, he
preached the gospel to the perlshing
without regard to pay or salary.

THE OLD HYMN.
To-day, with quiet heart, I heard
The prayer, the anthem, and the
nSalm.

To-day, with quiet heart, heard
The prayer, the anthem, and the
psalm,
And gently on my spirits fell
The sweetness of the Sunday calm,
Till, at the reading of the hymn,
With sudden tears my ears were dim.
That old, old hymn! Its sacred lines
Had fallen on my childish ears,
My life turned back, unhindered by
The stretch of intervening years
Near me my little daughter smiled,
And yet again / was child,
Outside the winds were fierce and
rough,
The winters chill was in the air;
But | could hear the bonny birds,
And humming insects everywhere !;
And feel, in spite of frost and snow,
A summer breeze from long ago.
TO find the place i took the book,
And held it in woman's hand,
While all my soul was moved with
thrills
No other soul could understand;
And quite unseen, with love divine,
My mothers fingers folded mine.
And now because the music rose
Exultingly, l held my breath,
Lest should lose its sweet delight
Upon her lips the hush of death
For years have lain! and yet / heard
My mothers voice in every word.
Full well / know the dead are dead,
Yet sometimes at look or tone,
With short relenting, will the past
One moment give us back our own.
0 happy pain Too quickly done
AS swiftly ended as begun.

MUSTERED OUT.

There's a lonely grave in Virginia.
And nameless sleeper there,
That fell when the tide of battle
Rolled over that land so fair.
No costly marble marks the spot
Where he fell mid wars stern rout,
But rough-hewn cross and the simple
words
s. A soldier mustered out
There are graves in the s. Old Dominion
Where her heroes lie at rest,
And piles of bronze and marble
Stand above each sleeper's breast
But none are there among them all
That deck her hills about
With tomb so grandly simple
AS the soldiers $ mustered out"
No music of soft requiems,
No church bell tolling low;
But clash of arms and cannon S boom,
When he was called to go.
His shroud a blood stained, tattered flag,
His hymn the victor's shout.
His knell the - Cumberland s - last run,
When he was mustered out"
All heroes sleep not meath tall shafts
Nor monuments of stone;
For many graves are marked, alas
With one short word " Unknown :"
They sleep who fought as those
For whom the millions shout,
Till the Lord of battle gave command,
And they were : mustered out.
But He who marks the sparrow's fall
Knows where each hero lies,
And humble blood for justice shed
BY Him is not despised.
And when in the last reveille
The dead ranks throng about
Foremost among the just shall stand
Those soldiers - mustered out"
